MURFREESBORO, Tenn. — Let me let you in on a little secret about me, dear readers: Halloween has never been a holiday I get particularly excited for.
Even when I was trick or treating age, I never felt a huge bit of anticipation for All Hallow's Eve. I'm not quite sure why, because there was a lot surrounding the holiday I liked, from spooky movies like Hocus Pocus, to my favorite season of fall, to the bag of Reese's Cups sitting next to my desk at this very moment.
I suspect it was a combination of a) not having an inkling of enjoying horror films, and therefore not getting the fun out of haunted houses, mazes, woods etc that pop up this time of year.
